A whale of a cat!

I'm not in the habit of blogging about cats, but my recent blog about Norwegian Forest Cats and Maine Coons prompted a great e-mail. My friend Dan Hadley's mother, who lives in San Diego, is owned by an absolutely jaw-droppingly large Maine Coon named Sammy.

Dan was good enough to send along a photo of himself holding Sammy, and I think you'll agree, this is ONE BIG CAT!

Yes, yes, a magnificent beauty! Sammy is reportedly an enormous marshmallow, though!

He's gorgeous! My long-haired tuxedo, Bugsy, is a gigantic Maine Coon-type; since he and his littermates were found near a dumpster, there's no telling what his folks looked like. But he fits the profile in appearance and disposition. And like all the best cats, he's indoor-only.

Oh, my... The white feet are simply too much.
